Wonder if they would work to cut up a whole chicken?

Sanitation aside, I do not know as I have never tried this.....however, from my experience with how this cuts, chicken would not be a problem whatsoever........

Certainly it's possible. However, if I could add an update to my original review...the cutting blade has already become dull. I am disappointed and would not purchase this again.

I guess they would . . . I don't see why not. Kitchen scissors would most likely break.

Don't know why not . . . might be kind of overkill, though. I would stick with regular kitchen shears that you can put through the dishwasher

I roast mad chickens. I'm talking like 3 - 4 chickens per week. My girlfriend loves em. Let me tell you what, these babies can deconstruct a bird like no other. Wanna' spatchcock? No problem. Need to break up a backbone to make stock? No problem. Have to cut a breast in half (through the bone) while preserving some crispy skin? Not gonna let you down. Micro serrations: check. Easy cleanup: check. These are the secateurs for you. They make me feel like former correctional officer, Rick Ross when I use them. Don't let your family down Josiah.

You definitely can but if you mean whole chicken, and depending on the size of the bird I would prefer a roaster pan or one deep enough to catch the juice and grease.

I haven't tried cutting the bone. Roast a whole chicken, cut at the joint...

I don't think either of the steamer inserts are deep enough for a whole chicken, but I've never tried to do that myself.

absolutely; it'll start off standing up, then end up laying down because its so tender. I believe it'll do a 4# chicken w/o a problem, even more so if cut up.

Yes, you can do a whole chicken. You can do a whole slab of ribs (cut in half). As for pork roast just yesterday I did the smoking of a piece of fresh rear leg (2.9 kilos), completing the slow cooking process in a gas owen.

I wouldn't think so, they have to bite on it. you could probably use a chicken waterer

It would work if you either break them in half or cut a big enough hole. But, you don't really need this tool for scraping out the meat of young coconuts; a spoon works well enough.

yes you can use the shears to cut the backbone out of a chicken , we have several times and they are holding up well , not like out last pair. we are happy with these.

I haven't tried but assume they would. They wouldn't scratch, but they probably wouldn't cut it a smoothly as a regular knife. Most things come out a little jagged.

I wouldn't think so - it is HUGE and I don't think it would be agile enough for that. It works really well for carving meat into really thin slices.

I haven't tried it, but I'm pretty certain that it would cut the shell of a raw egg as well as a cooked one. Might be a bit messy, though...

the only way i could see this working, is putting a drip pan underneath, and cooking "lollipopped chicken legs"... which is actually a good idea, i may have to try it... but the tips of a standard chicken leg would be look large for the most part i would say.

Yes, I've used it to cut through chicken back bones, but I have not tried cutting the drumstick/thigh bones.

Not much of a chicken strangler myself, but yes, I would say so. It's quite broad, so provided that your chicken doesn't attempt to stand up in the pot, I'm reasonably confident that it would work fine, with plenty of veggies. (I am assuming that you're talking about the 8 quart pot.)

I've never done a whole chicken. But I have done a chicken that was cut in pieces and it fit just fine.
